      Question

      The ratio of length and breadth of a rectangular field

      is 5:3. If the total cost of surrounding it at the rate of Rs 7.50 per meter is Rs 3000, then find the difference between the length and breadth of the field.
      A 25m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 50m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 125m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 75m Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The ratio of length and breadth = 5:3 Length of field = 5x and breadth = 3x Then perimeter of field = 2(5x+3x) = 16x ATQ- 16x × 7.50 = 3000 16x = 3000/7.50=400 x = 25 Now difference between length and breadth =2×25 = 50 meters
